Fourth of July Weather Forecast for North Texas
The holiday that celebrates the nation’s birth and its red, white and blue could be accompanied on Friday in North Texas by clouds and scattered showers.
There’s a 30% chance of scattered showers in Dallas-Fort Worth during the morning and first half of the day, according to the National Weather Service.
But rain chances are expected to decrease by night, and won’t return until overnight, the weather service said. That means nighttime fireworks should not be affected by wet weather.
